About this home

Gorgeous 4.47 acre mountain homesite with long-range views & the seclusion of a mature forest! Located in the private gated community of South Mountain Peaks, this building lot is quietly tucked away in a cul-de-sac with just 1 neighboring property. With tons of road frontage and a gentle slope, you can nestle your future mountain home among the trees and mountain laurel covering this land. With some limited tree clearing, you'll open up the dramatic layered views of the nearby South Mountain Range. The community offers wide, paved roads and underground electric & fiber optic cable. There's no time frame to start building so you can purchase your property now and design your dream home on it to be built when you're ready. A 3-bedroom septic test has just been completed so the land is ready to build on. Located approx. 15 minutes from the charming towns of Forest City & Rutherfordton, you'll be close to amazing hiking, local shopping, wineries/breweries, and excellent healthcare. Take the first step in realizing your mountain living dreams...Come see this incredible mountain property today!
